How we handle tile repair in Lochawe

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right, on ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lochawe as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Lochawe

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

If you manage property in Lochawe, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Most clients in Lochawe get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Ceramic tiles

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lochawe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
